At first I was crazy with the schedule and the position and the laying there. After a few cycles that got awful, and I relaxed and tried to just enjoy it. That worked, so I'd really suggest it. Way more fun, which this ought to be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-and-how-soon-bding#post-408424 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 18:06:48 +0000 Foodnerd81 408424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The wait for o is worse than the tww because you are afraid of missing it. After o you can relax at least! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-and-how-soon-bding#post-408404 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 17:42:06 +0000 MamaMoose 408404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a very reliable 28 day cycle so we started on CD 10 and did two days of BDing then one day off and continued that pattern until 48 hours after I got a positive OPK. Worked on the first try for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-and-how-soon-bding#post-408392 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 17:33:15 +0000 mlm2934 408392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not an "every day kind of girl" anyways, so I guess I should just try to contain my excitement until its closer! The wait for go time is driving me just as crazy as TWW. #soimpatient! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-and-how-soon-bding#post-408384 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 17:22:34 +0000 Foodnerd81 408384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My midwife said EOD was plenty (and, it worked!), though didn't advise against every day, she just said we'd get worn out. We started BDing a couple of days before I thought I would be and kept going until after my temp shift confirmed O-- but last cycle, we started early and we were honestly worn out by the end, even with every other day. So... start whenever, be prepared to be tired at the end, and aim for at least every other day but if you want to do it more why not? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-and-how-soon-bding#post-408383 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 17:19:18 +0000 Alivoo01 408383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We start BD about 3-4 days after AF ends, and BD every other day until a couple days past O. We've tried the every day thing for a couple months and omg! It gets exhausting and that's before you even get to ovulate!! If you two have the energy to keep it up then go for it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-and-how-soon-bding#post-408376 Tue, 20 Nov 2012 17:08:15 +0000 mlm2934 408376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sure there other variations of this question on here, but I'm too lazy to dig! :) so how soon do you start your BD after AF ends? I sorta want to start going from here on out, with about 8 days until fertile days start, just so my bases are covered, but then I think that's silly and we will exhaust ourselves before OD! And I keep reading that docs say every other day is good enough, but that they also say everyday is ok for guys with normal sperm count - so which do I do!!! is every day the best bet? (I've been reading too much!) </p>
